A Message from<br />
<strong>Our</strong> Bishops !<br />
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION<br />
A new name for this feast, long known as Corpus Christi or<br />
“Body <strong>of</strong> Christ,” points to an important recovery <strong>of</strong> Communion from<br />
the shared chalice, the Precious Blood, in the Roman <strong>Catholic</strong> liturgy.<br />
For many centuries, only the priest received from the chalice. Now, over<br />
the last forty years, the cup has been <strong>of</strong>fered more frequently to the<br />
faithful. Sadly, perhaps because it is not <strong>of</strong>fered at all Masses, or because<br />
people are free to pass by the <strong>of</strong>fered cup, it can be seen by some<br />
as a “take it or leave it” option.<br />
Some important meanings surface, however, when we drink<br />
from the common cup, such as our desire to participate in the pouring<br />
out <strong>of</strong> Christ’s love. Bread is the staff <strong>of</strong> life, eaten by necessity even in<br />
times <strong>of</strong> pain. Wine, on the other hand, is the mark <strong>of</strong> festivity, a pledge<br />
<strong>of</strong> joy, a sign <strong>of</strong> unity between our altar table and the banquet feast <strong>of</strong><br />
heaven. The center <strong>of</strong> the Gospel today is Jesus speaking <strong>of</strong> the pouring<br />
out <strong>of</strong> his blood, and his <strong>of</strong>fer <strong>of</strong> a cup <strong>of</strong> blessing to be shared as a sign<br />
<strong>of</strong> his love. There is no better response than to take and drink, and no<br />
better way to mark this feast.<br />

The Mass<br />
The American bishops have called for “A Fortnight for Freedom” during the two-week period<br />
from <strong>June</strong> 21 to July 4 to focus “all the energies the <strong>Catholic</strong> community can muster” for<br />
religious liberty. In the Diocese <strong>of</strong> Orlando, Bishop John Noonan has asked all the faithful to<br />
participate in the celebration <strong>of</strong> Mass on July 4th to pray for religious freedom. So here at<br />
<strong>Our</strong> <strong>Lady</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lourdes</strong> we will have a special July 4th Mass at 8:15 am with lots <strong>of</strong> patriotic<br />
music and special prayers for religious liberty.<br />
As you know, The Department <strong>of</strong> Health and Human Services mandate, is requiring almost all<br />
private health plans to cover contraception, sterilization and abortion-inducing drugs.<br />
The Fortnight <strong>of</strong> Freedom is a concerted effort <strong>of</strong> prayer to help this not come to pass!<br />
See our Diocesan website for more information: www.orlandodiocese.org<br />

<strong>Church</strong><br />
Parking<br />
We are blessed as a parish community to have<br />
many parishioners and visitors join us regularly for<br />
our weekend and weekday Masses. What a joy to<br />
join together with so many <strong>of</strong> our fellow Christians<br />
to express our thanksgiving and praise. We do,<br />
though, have one parking issue that has recently<br />
arisen.<br />
The Fire Lane in the front <strong>of</strong> the church is regularly<br />
being used by parishioners and guests for<br />
parking during Mass. And the issue has arisen lately<br />
where emergency personnel have not been able to<br />
access the church from this lane due to people<br />
parking there.<br />
Please refrain from using this fire lane for Mass<br />
parking. There are regularly un-used parking spaces<br />
in the Ministry Building parking lot, and in the<br />
main parking lot <strong>of</strong> the Melbourne Public Library (on<br />
the east side…we are not permitted to park in the<br />
small staff lot on the west side <strong>of</strong> the library).<br />
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter..<br />

SACRIFICIO<br />
“El Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo”<br />
10 de junio de 2012<br />
“Levantaré el cáliz de salvación e invocaré el nombre del Señor.”<br />
— Salmo 116(115):13<br />
Hoy la Iglesia se centra en la Eucaristía. Las lecturas<br />
de hoy nos recuerdan la gran conexión que existe entre los sacrificios<br />
de sangre de la antigüedad y el sacrificio incruento<br />
que <strong>of</strong>recemos ahora. La lectura del Éxodo describe un rito<br />
solemne para que los israelitas nunca olviden su pacto con Dios.<br />
La lectura de la Carta a los Hebreos nos lleva de los antiguos<br />
sacrificios de animales a los primeros esfuerzos para<br />
adorar al Dios vivo. Nuestro sacrificio es el Cuerpo y la Sangre<br />
del Hijo de Dios. A causa de Cristo tenemos una nueva alianza.<br />
El Evangelio según San Marcos relata la creación de<br />
ese pacto, la conocida historia de la Última Cena. Si contrastamos<br />
la historia del sacrificio de animales que vemos<br />
aquí, se nos desafía a escuchar con nueva atención, para recordar<br />
el gran precio que pagó por nuestra salvación. Jesús<br />
dio su cuerpo y cada gota de su sangre por nosotros.<br />

Come, Stay With Me<br />
for One Hour<br />
What is<br />
Eucharistic Adoration?<br />
As <strong>Catholic</strong>s, we believe in the<br />
Real Presence <strong>of</strong> Jesus' Body,<br />
Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Eucharist.<br />
After communion, the<br />
consecrated hosts are taken to<br />
the tabernacle where He yearns to<br />
receive a visit from all <strong>of</strong> us, His<br />
children, for a heart to heart moment.<br />
Adoration <strong>of</strong> the Blessed Sacrament<br />
takes place every Wednesday<br />
following the 8:15 a.m. Mass<br />
and finishes at 5:30 pm, with Benediction<br />
before the 6:00 p.m.<br />
Mass. When Jesus is exposed, He<br />
needs to be in company <strong>of</strong> his children<br />
(adorers) and He can't be left<br />
alone during these hours. He is<br />
our Guest <strong>of</strong> Honor - in the same<br />
way you would not leave your<br />
guest unattended. Prayer before<br />
the Blessed Sacrament is nothing<br />
less than a close, private conversation<br />
with a living person . . .<br />
Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. It is<br />
about as close as we can come in<br />
